In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm
btree remove: assign new_root only when removal succeeds remove_raw() in
dm_btree_remove() may fail due to IO read error (e.g. read the content of
origin block fails during shadowing), and the value of shadow_spine::root
is uninitialized, but the uninitialized value is still assign to new_root
in the end of dm_btree_remove(). For dm-thin, the value of
pmd->details_root or pmd->root will become an uninitialized value, so if
trying to read details_info tree again out-of-bound memory may occur as
showed below: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
